Limewire


Recommended Posts

I find that each song is different as far as transferring song titles, artists, and genre are concerned. Unfortunately, I have had to go back into i-Tunes and adjust this info.

 

While I am not the most Tech savvy. I find that this works for me even though it is time consuming.

Tami,

Try going under your iTunes Preferences. Click on the Advanced tab, then Importing tab. There should be a check in the box before Automatically retrieve CD track names from Internet

I noticed sometimes on Limewire, the tracks are named with numbers and the artist name might load on the same line, but that's just a copy and paste to fix into the right column...

hopefully that helps.

Ok, so that was already checked, so maybe I will need to do it manually. It says they are being imported with the AAC Encoder. Is that what I should use or should I use the MP3 Encoder? I don't know the differences. :-)

Maybe those I will just have to change manually. It's updating now, so we'll see if it changes those blank ones to the CD/Album/Song names...

Thanks for the help!!cheer2.gif

I do this all the time and it works nicely. Ok, so download it from Limewire, then go into "File" on iTunes. "Add file from Library" then it will transfer to iTunes. Then right click on the song, and click on "Get info" In there, you can change the song details, so whatever you type in should show up on your IPOD....make sense? Let me know if it doesn't work! Good luck!
